Seems I've been working on their nerves going past almost daily never speeding and waving ...... :P
I was super polite and friendly and did everything they wanted. Took them really aback to the point that eventually he asked why I kept on waving at them ...... :P
I just replied that I felt sorry for them being out there @ 7am and just greeted them without malice or other intent .....
I have never been stopped there again and get a wave back most days now .....
